Mikkeller Tokyo

Shibuya & Shimo-Kitazawa


Mikkel Borg Bjergsø is a pioneer 'gypsy brewer', one who dreams up wild concoctions, but outsources the actual brewing. His beers are served at world-famous restaurants and also at the select bars scattered across the globe that bear his name, including this recently opened one in Tokyo. Most of the 20 brews on tap are his, but there are also some Japanese craft beers, too.

The bar is a little hard to find, located deep within the red-light areas of Dōgenzaka, but in an oddly cheerful sunny yellow building (with cool Scandi-decor inside).
